Patent number: 12131098Abstract: Controlling the output of audio based on the mode of an electronic device having a sound mode, silent mode, and mute mode, along different audio output routes. In the sound mode, all audio can be output, while only registered or authorized audio can be output in the silent mode. In the mute mode, no audio can be output. The sound and silent modes can be enabled using an interface of the device, while the mute mode can be enabled using an accessory coupled to the device. To disengage the mute mode, a user can provide a corresponding instruction using the accessory or providing an instruction on the device related to volume control. Other aspects are also described and claimed.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2023Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Patrick Coffman, Meriko Borogove, Jonathan Bennett, Gregory Chapman, Anthony Guetta, Deepak Iyer, Eric Johnson

Patent number: 11775252Abstract: This is directed to controlling the output of audio based on the mode of an electronic device. In particular, this is directed to an electronic device having a sound mode, silent mode, and mute mode controlling the output of audio along different audio output routes. In the sound mode, all audio can be output, while only registered or authorized audio can be output in the silent mode. In the mute mode, no audio can be output. The sound and silent modes can be enabled using an interface of the device (e.g., a switch having two possible states), while the mute mode can be enabled using an accessory coupled to the device. To disengage the mute mode, a user can provide a corresponding instruction using the accessory, or providing an instruction on the device related to volume control. For example, a user can change the device volume using an on-device interface, or toggle a sound/silent switch to a sound mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2022Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Patrick Coffman, Meriko Borogove, Jonathan Bennett, Gregory Chapman, Anthony Guetta, Deepak Iyer, Eric Johnson

Patent number: 11252119Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for logging message data with reduced the latency and decreased overhead in multi-tenant systems. A message server may implement a two-stage process for logging the message data. In the first stage, the message server may create job-specific and write-optimized staging tables for each message processing job, and may store the message data for each job in a corresponding staging table. This may be done as the message server is building and sending the messages for each job. Additionally, the message server may partition or shard the staging tables so that the write operations are spread to multiple storage disks to avoid creating a storage server hotspot or bottleneck. In the second stage, the message server may move the accumulated message data from the individual staging tables to a corresponding tenant space at regular intervals. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2018Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: SALESFORCE.COM, INC.Inventors: D. Thomas Waltz, Jonathan Bennett, Paul Beck

Patent number: 10693952Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for processing and sending messages with low latency are described. An application server may obtain a triggered send request (TSR) message from triggered send (TS) subscriber. The TSR message may comprise TSR information and a TSR payload. The application server may directly inject the TSR payload to an available message server for processing when the TSR information indicates that a first priority is associated with the payload, and may notify the available message server that the TSR payload is available for processing when the TSR information indicates that a second priority is associated with the payload. The application server may also write the TSR payload and/or TSR information to a TSS queue of a TSS tenant space, and may write the payload to a non-relational datastore regardless of a priority associated with the payload. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: SALESFORCE.COM, INC.Inventors: D.
